of any relationship I had with him.

I hadn't even been

made partner yet.

I wouldn't know anything.

He used the both of us t...

You carried illegal financial codes meant

for the Thai mafia across the country.

And you're gonna sit there and tell

me you were none the f***ing wiser?

As far as I knew, my boss told me

to take a vacation immediately.

I'm the guy

with everything to lose.

You think I'm gonna

lose my job over this?

You know, it's funny, Vicha had no

problem pointing the finger at you.

What about your brother's

so-called assistant, Jules?

How much do you know

about her background?

Do you even realize how

dangerous this woman is?

So how long do you think

you're gonna need this for?

About two weeks maybe.

Okay, well,

consider it done then.

Would you run one of my trades through

your account until I get back?

Sure, anything for you, Josh.

All right, I need to finalize this

Asiana deal by 80 million at par.

So, who's name do

you want on the title?

Good morning.

One, sec.

Sorry, Kris, uh,

I'll email you the details.

Why don't you just send me the

confirmation when it goes through?

And then?

Keep it in your client account

until I get back.

Sure, so, you having fun there?

Kris, I'm gonna have to call you

back. Let's catch up tomorrow.

Okay.

Don't enjoy yourself

too much without me, okay?

Bye.

Good morning to you, too.

How could you tell?

You look like sh*t.

How do you really feel?

You know what?

Let's start over.

I'm Josh.

I'm Jules.

That's it? No last name?

Born in? Favorite holiday?

Look, I don't like to mix

anything personal with work.

We're not at work.

Maybe you're not, but I am.

So, I'm work?

Today you are.

You're here to baby-sit me?

You said it, not me.

So get dressed, and we

have a 10:
00 appointment.

Let's go.

Wait a second,

where are we going?

You'll see.

Oh, yeah, that's wrong.

Okay, did you want more?

What are you laughing at? The

masseuse weighed like 3,000 pounds.

You're such a wimp.

Wimp?

I'm sore in places

I never knew existed.

I did like that scorpion tattoo,

though.

You were watching me?

I mean, accidentally.

Yeah, right, yeah.

So are you going to tell me

about the tattoo?

What? Okay.

So how long you been

working for my brother?

I've been working for Paul long

enough to know never to trust men.

So you two never...

Never what?

No, never, never.

Jesus.

What did you do

before this? CIA? NSA?

KGB?

KGB is Russian, just, enough

with the questions, okay?

Ugh, this is so...

You're disgusting.

This is disgusting.

Here, you eat it.

Do you know how he was

really hurt last night?

No.

Of course, you don't.
